@slancehoops What an incredible coach

Rick Pitino: “This was one of the most unique teams I’ve had in 52 years. Never one argument amongst the players… They were willing to do anything to try and win… Never again [will I have a team] with this type of attitude and just incredible people. My heart breaks for them.”

@JamesonTaillon0 @Otrips12 I don’t have a dog in the fight 😭

@cbbforge @Otrips12 Maybe make the elite 8

ALWAYS KNOW WHO BIG BRO IS

@itsAntWright The NCAA:

The NCAA tournament has done a nice job staggering these games nicely

@CycloneLarry69 Maybe the Big Ten is just different

Teams don’t do that to Houston. Illinois could be freaky good

The biggest under edge of the night pulls through easily!

@Champaign_Room Jake Davis looks like some dude at your LA Fitness that works construction during the day. And he is a FLAMETHROWER

Jake Davis is not the player I thought Illinois was getting two years ago lol

This is the last time I get tricked into taking Houston far in my bracket

Arizona right now:

@Otrips12 @CoachHoiberg We seriously need a Five Guys NIL deal for next years’ guys

Hey @CoachHoiberg how many players belong on a basketball court?

@JamesonTaillon0 @Otrips12 I have no dog in the fight. I wouldn’t exactly call losing the last 3/4 “owning” though

@cbbforge @Otrips12 And the baby brother owns them?!

@RockChalkBlog Does this mean the Big 10 is the best conference in college basketball?

It is super bizarre to see Houston settle for all these jumpers. They are so, totally out of whack. Illinois is impressive.

This is rough way to go out for Houston, they’re coughing up the ball, can’t a shot. Illinois been playing well defensively but feels like they’re beating themselves

I still can’t get over Nebraska only having four guys on the floor on this play. Lost them the game.

@RockChalkBlog All Big 10 Final Four is still in play

Holy kill shot, Batman. The Fighting Illini are about to become Final Four favorites, huh?

@Huskerball05 Don’t think he’s ready for the league yet

If we lose him to the league I think I’d cry. Truly a game changer for our program this year

Houston Basketball:

Fred Hoiberg with the season on the line

Fred Hoiberg paying homage to the late, great Gene Hackman. Gotta love it.

@BrewClone Idk. The man is from Iowa City. I think he’s interested in building Iowa into a powerhouse

Be careful Iowa fans with huge proclamations about a coach that leads his team to the Elite 8 in year one. I know another one that did the same.
